Our take
Qualifyze is an online platform that provides supplier audits for the pharma industry, aiming to decrease bottlenecks by implementing curated data and insights for stakeholders and strategic decision-makers.
Based out of Frankfurt, Qualifyze was founded as a solution to the supply shortage in the pharmaceutical industry. This problem has become 20 times more prevalent between 2000 and 2018 and has led to pharmaceutical companies having to slow down research into new drugs for the treatment of serious illnesses.
Qualifyze's solution to this has turned the heads of investors and led to significant funding so far, which has been used to grow its supplier client base whilst expanding its offices across the EU.
